being pro-choice, at this point, politically speaking, IS a moderateâ€™s point.

Hmmmmmm, a majority of Americans are pro-life. It follows then that a majority position should be considered the “mainstream” perspective.

The “mainstream” perspective is generally and politically considered the “moderate” viewpoint. Notwithstanding the liberal mainstream media’s attempts to influence and color people’s thinking and thoughts on many issues.

All in how you view the statistics. Regardless, the large majority only support abortion under certain circumstances. I.e. they do not support unrestricted access to abortion. As Christians, I would say we see that as the law of God being written on their hearts. People recognize that abortion is inherently wrong. Most even say that there should be very limited access to abortion (just a refinement of the last statement). It disturbs me to see a presidential candidate so polarized and voiced about an issue that he disagrees with the majority of those from whom he is asking votes. Paul, I fathom your view. I vehemently disagree with it, but I understand. Even taking into account that most (according to the gallup poll above) see abortion as at best â€œone among manyâ€ arguments, it seems like so many other positions are affected by abortion. What I mean is that my extreme position on abortion is mirrored by Obamaâ€™s extreme position on abortion. It seems that, based on his comments, abortion will be a transcendent value to him when appointing new justices. Obama doesnâ€™t see abortion as a one among many, either, and SC justices will rule on far more than abortion over the next 4 â€“ 8 years. Just a thought. Well, not the last comment on SC justices. Iâ€™m fairly certain theyâ€™ll make several rulings in that time ;-).

If you say that the Written Word and the Living Word of God are your authorities, but everything you say and do follows the secular atheistic culture you live in, then your real authority is secular atheistic culture, my friend.

I think Paul is pointing out the problem with the pro-choice crowd, which does include plenty of Republicans. They always mention how horrible it is, but how it is okay to have one.

Paul is pro-life but doesn’t see any point to overturning Roe v. Wade. He has correctly pointed out that it would only return the abortion decision to the states. Since he lives in Illinois, he feels as though he is fighting a losing battle. It is probably different for me in Texas.

Paul,

Sorry if I misrepresented your position in any way. Feel free to correct me.

Darius: “Perhaps John, you could, for just once, actually do more than engage in ad hominem attacks. In case you donâ€™t know what that means, it means to argue against the person rather than the argument.”

John, you have yet to actually address one argument with reason or facts. If there is one person on here who is completely irrelevant to the conversation, it is you. You have run away from every debate when faced with actual arguments (though not before you unleash more of your disgusting vitriol).
